Tan J P Posted July 26, 2011 Report Share Posted July 26, 2011 As title says Shadow has been housetrained from very early days and we've never had a problem. yesterday she was curled up asleep when she suddenly jumped up and then scurried to the door. i turned and saw a huge puddle where she had been laying, i went out to her and poor baby looked so scared,she came to me and she was soaking wet she had literally wee'd herself. this has never happen before,and once i washed her she was fine for the rest of the day. could she have been in such a deep sleep that this has happened or has anyone had this happen and know another reason?

Matthew Posted July 26, 2011 Report Share Posted July 26, 2011 Very odd, in my years of dog ownership, I have never seen or heard of it. I know my dog had a nightmare once and woke up with a cry and a jolt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tan J P Posted July 26, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 26, 2011 i have been brought up with dogs all my life and owned my own for over 20yrs and never seen it either. if i hadn't actually seen it,i would have just assumed one of them had had an accident but she definitely did in in her sleep and woke up immediately after:( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthew Posted July 26, 2011 Report Share Posted July 26, 2011 From what I got from googling it is it could be nothing or could be something. Id say if it happens again, it Vet time. Could be infection or something to do with it not being spayed/nuetered if it isnt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marley & Lumikkis Mummy Posted July 26, 2011 Report Share Posted July 26, 2011 I was going to suggest maybe the start of a UTI ? I would get it checked just incase its an infection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Posted July 26, 2011 Report Share Posted July 26, 2011 I have never seen this before either. If they can run in their sleep, well maybe she was busting for a wee, but still asleep. In her dream, she was having a nice long. . . "Aaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhh" and in reality she did. As Matthew says, once. An accident. If it happens a gain . . .vet time.

Tan J P Posted July 26, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 26, 2011 she is spayed i was thinking maybe an infection,but then wouldn't have thought it would just be a one off if thats the case she is not doing anything else out of the norm....no more wee'ing than normal,not mopey,eating normally. i'm keeping my eye on her and if it did happen again i'd take her to the vet was just curious to see if any1 else had this happen or knew any reason why Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ahny Posted July 31, 2011 Report Share Posted July 31, 2011 I spoke with my vet just last week about huskies having "accidents" while asleep, and while it's not common, in spade females its not at all unheard of. It is however very very uncommonn for a neutered male. If your beautiful girl has another accidental in her sleep bring her to the vet and she will be put on popalin more than likely and it should fix her right up. And do not worry, you are alone with this issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sutsibe Posted July 31, 2011 Report Share Posted July 31, 2011 Be careful of the Propalin - it can have side-effects (as most drugs can...) http://www.drugs.com/vet/propalin.html http://www.vetinfo.com/dphenylpropanolamine.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
